Resumo:Throughout the day, different TV news programs from TV Globo broadcast news about the same events insistently and exhaustively. Basically, for an assiduous audience, this repetition of subjects all day long may have its need questioned and become quite tiresome. Thus, this paper proposes to examine the process of reconfiguring news about the same events, transmitted in five TV newscasts of the TV Globo during 24 hours. It is interesting, in particular, to analyze the mode of operation of the discursive devices of thematization, figurativization, actoralization, spatialization, timing and toning in the process of framing the news in two different events transmitted in five TV newscasts of TV Globo – Bom Dia Brasil, Jornal Hoje, Jornal Nacional and Jornal da Globo – in a 24-hour period, verifying in particular the manipulation of discursive devices with the purpose to check the sense of actuality of the subjects conveyed repeatedly on TV. The theory-methodology organization substantiates a discursive semiotics inspired by European Semiotics principles based on Saussere (2012), Hjelmslev (2013), and Greimas and Courtés (2016), as well as  other researchers whose studies are about the televisual production. The results obtained in this investigation reveal the existence of at least three processes of reconfiguration of the discursive elements in the conformation of news about the same events: (1) the complexification of the discursive devices; (2) stabilization of the discursive devices and (3) reprise / re-presentation of the same discursive conformations.
